I don't really participate in the GG.net vs TL.net rivalry. It is stupid, both sites are useful, yadda yadda. But a plea to their fucking frontpage editors:
Stop getting such a hard on for putting the results of matches in your fucking headlines!

Really sucks to wake up and go check out my morning rotation of sites over coffee and have MSL semis spoiled for me before I can even look away.

Honestly though TL.net seems like the only site that really cares about giving at least a week lead-time before spoiling in front page articles. I have seen GG.net fuck me many times, SC2GG does it occasionally (usually in listing like 3 videos out of a bo5 in commentary), SCForAll also takes GG.net's "newspaper" approach.

I understand that there are different approaches to this. Newspapers don't wait 2 weeks to break results of football games; rather people get the paper to SEE those results. So is it wrong for me to hate on GG.net for adopting that model rather than TL.net's "we think our readers want to watch every game and not be spoiled" model?

Yes. Fuck them for this. T_T... Put it in the article, put the title as something like "Flash and ForGG show off! Results below!" or something. Just don't spoil it for me as punishment for daring to visit your page.

Wtf? Thats your own fault not GG.net's
If you know from going there in the past, it's that GG.net is on top of news 24/7 with updates
Use it or lose it

I think it's your own fault. You know GG.net does this, why would you go to their website if you don't want the results spoiled?

TeamLiquid is a place for both watching and reading StarCraft, and thus it's goals are different. GG.net doesn't have a tracker, doesn't have a PD, or anything else, it's just news.

Seriously... Is there any other reason to log onto GG.net? Other than news? I don't know because I haven't been there in months, but I think all they have is some mediocre replays. Although I know they do foreigner news too, like KotH, but I stopped paying attention to those because they're the only source of replays, but if you want to get to the replays, you have to click an article that spoils the results.

Oh damn it... I thought it was obvious that Flash was going to win the series, so I went to GG.net to see if they had any decent replays lately... Uhhhhhg, I'm an idiot lol.

What annoys me is the sensational headlines. It's like they'll find the cockiest most obnoxious quote from any interview and make sure that's the headline. Wtf?

Personally it annoys me not to know the results asap if I haven't watched them live. I only watch a series after I already I know the results most of the time.

The news is fine, they have become better imo. But the community is so bad, so few people are gm.

Wow didn't know they did this. What is the point? Sounds just so dumb to put results on the headline. You don't see any movie sites with headlines going like "JAMES BOND DIES IN THE END OF HIS NEW MOVIE!" (making this up btw :p)
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

i don't have a problem with gosugamers but i guess this is just because don't visit the site too often.
but what you say is totally correct and that happened a few times to me too...
and the most ridiulous thing is the replay section. if you read the comments on replays in almost all are statements like "#x use spoiler tags [random insult]". isn't this paradoxical? T_T
